Keeping My Head Up

I want to try to stay away from the people that keep me down.
Escape Expression of Self - You can't understand. You won't understand.
Staying away from people that always run around
In circles, without knowing where their going.
Without caring where they'll end up.
It hurts me more than them, Because I care about them not caring.
If I approach pain, I know the devils staring.
So I stay away.
Though provoking,
No more
Temptations only leave a sore
A Bruise
A Pain
Intolerable, and those I put through it know that life's a game. Stop playing, Say sorry.
when there's no apology needed.
Only because no sorry can appease pain as it increases.
I wish i werent a person with thoughts of pure selflishness,
And then I try to heal others' pain. Helplessness.
When I fall into holes,
I want to - talk to those
Demons that pushed me (but my demons run away until they can come again and play)
Look
See
I must not, To stop is too hard.
The floor, looks soft, so with falling, I'll be content.
